THE STATE OF TEXAS )(

COUNTY OF TARRANT )(

THE UNDERSIGNED AFFIANT, BEING A SPECIAL AGENT WITH THE BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES (A TF) UNDER THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, BEING DUL Y SWORN ON OATH, MAKE THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS AND ACCUSATIONS:

I

I, Melanie Finney, having been duly sworn, do depose and state the following:

1. That I have been employed as an A TF Special Agent since January 2001. Additionally, I was employed as a Deputy United States Marshal with the United States Marshals Service for approximately three and one half years. I have a total of approximately thirteen (13) years of law enforcement experience. I have conducted investigations involving various federal violations; including violations of Title 26 U.S.C. § 5861(d), Receive or Possess a Firearm (Destructive Device) which is not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record and Title 26 U.S.C. § 5861(1), Manufacture ofa Firearm (Destructive Device) which is not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. I have conducted numerous investigations involving the manufacture, possession and use of explosives, destructive devices. component parts, improvised explosive weapons, and firearms as defined in Title 26, U.S.C. § 5845(a). I am familiar with, and have participated in. many methods of investigation, including, but not limited to, electronic surveillance, visual surveillance, general questioning of witnesses, use of search warrants, use of confidential informants, use of pen registers, use of trap and trace devices, and use of undercover agents. Based on my training, experience and participation in this investigation and other investigations involving the possession, manufacturing, or use of destructive devices, I know that:

a. Persons engaged in the manufacture and/or use of improvised explosive weapons and destructive devices commonly utilize printed books. internet materials, and other materials. including instruction

manuals, diagrams, and guidebooks, both in writing and electronically, to learn the manufacturing process of "homemade bombs" or destructive devices, to document their manufacture and use of said weapons, as well as receipts for the purchase of materials to manufacture destructive devices;

b. Persons engaged in the possession. use and/or manufacture of destructive devices! improvised explosive weapons often keep destructive devices. components of destructive devices, to include explosive powders. pipes. containers, fuses, initiators, detonators, wire, tape, batteries, and explosive materials, in their residence, storage building or shed in order to manufacture destructive devices;

c. It is common for persons involved in the manufacture and/or use of destructive devices! improvised explosive weapons and other criminal activities to take or cause to be taken photographs or videotapes of themselves, their associates, and their firearms, and that these persons maintain these photographs or videotapes at their residence;

d. Such devices, components, equipment, instructional publications and records are evidence of the crime of receiving or possessing a destructive device/ improvised explosive weapon and/or manufacturing a destructive device, which is not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record, in violation of Title 26 U.S.C. § 5861(d) and Title 26 U.S.C.§5861(t).

e. Based upon my knowledge, training and experience, and consultations with other special agents who have specialized training in the area of computers, I know that searching and seizing information from computers often requires agents to seize most or all electronic storage devices (along with related peripherals) to be searched later by a qualified computer expert in a controlled environment. This is true because of the following:

i. Computer storage devices (like hard drives, diskettes, tapes, laser disks) can store the equivalent of thousands of pages of information. It may require the searching authorities to examine all the stored data to determine which particular file(s) are evidence of a crime. This sorting process takes a great deal of time and it would be impractical to attempt this kind of data search on site.

ii. Searching computer systems for criminal evidence is a highly technical process requiring expert skill and a properly controlled environment. Since computer evidence is extremely vulnerable to inadvertent or intentional modification or destruction, a controlled environment is essential to its complete and accurate analysis.

f. Based upon my knowledge, training and experience, and consultations with other special agents, I know that searching computerized information for evidence of a crime commonly requires agents to seize computer hardware and most or all ofa computer system's input/output peripheral devices, related software, documentation, and data security devices (including passwords) so that a qualified computer expert can accurately retrieve the system's data in a controlled environment. This is true because of the following:

1, The hardware and peripheral devices which allow users to enter or retrieve data from the storage devices vary widely in their compatibility with other hardware and software. Many system storage devices require particular input/output (or "YO") devices in order to read the data on the system. It is important that the analyst be able

to properly re-configure the system as it now operates in order to accurately retrieve the evidence listed above. In addition, the analyst needs the relevant system software (operating systems, interfaces, and hardware drivers) and any applications software which may have been used to create the data, as wen as all related instruction manuals or other documentation and data security devices.

ii. If, after inspecting the hardware. I/O devices, software, documentation, and data security devices, the analyst determines that these items are no longer necessary to retrieve and preserve the data evidence, the government will return them within a reasonable time.

2. On the basis of the entire contents of this Affidavit, I believe there is probable cause for the issuance of search/seizure warrants for the premises described herein, for the purpose of seizure of physical evidence of the below referenced offenses, including contraband, and the instrumentality's for the commission of the offense referenced herein.

3. I have not included each and every known fact concerning this investigation. This affidavit is submitted for the limited purpose of securing search warrants. The statements contained in this affidavit are based in part upon my experience, knowledge of the facts and circumstances surrounding this investigation and on information provided to me by other law enforcement personnel and agencies. Similarly, information resulting from surveillance. except where otherwise indicated, does not necessarily set forth my personal observations, but rather has been provided directly or indirectly through other law enforcement officers who conducted such surveillance.

4. On May 2, 2010, at approximately 11 :09 am, officers from the Colleyville Police Department responded to a suspicious package call at 1003 Dogwood Ct, Colleyville, Texas. Upon arrival at the scene, officers met with Jeanette Barouch, date of birth 07/13/1957, who stated that she was the homeowner. Ms. Barouch stated that, on May 1, 2010, she took her dog for a walk at approximately 9:45 pm and that she did not observe anything on her front porch at that time. Ms. Barouch returned to her residence and went inside for the night. On May 2, 2010, at approximately 8:00 am, Ms. Barouch observed a Fed Ex box on the front porch of her residence as she was preparing to leave the residence. Ms. Barouch stated that she moved the package inside her home and then left for church. After church, Ms. Barouch returned to her residence at approximately 11 :00 am and opened the

package. Ms. Barouch observed that the package was addressed to I. Barouch and was labeled "Salad Sweepstakes" from Salads R Us, 1461 Houston Street, Houston, TX 42143~24 78.

5. Ms. Barouch reported that she routinely enters sweepstakes so she thought nothing of receiving a package. Ms. Barouch opened the package, a brown Fed Ex box, approximately 2' X 2' X 3' and found that it contained packing peanuts and two wooden salad bowls, taped together with masking tape. Ms. Barouch reported that she separated the bowls and discovered a six volt lantern battery wired to a large bag of black/gray powder inside the bowls. Ms. Barouch became suspicious and carried the package to a neighbor's house to show the neighbor. Ms. Barouch reported that she then placed the box, the bowls, and their contents on her front sidewalk and contacted the Colleyville Police Department. Ms. Barouch also found a folded dollar bill lying on her front porch, underneath where the package had been placed.

6. Ms. Barouch told the responding officers that she has been going through a divorce for the past five years, and that her ex-husband, David Barouch, date of birth 02/03/1959 has repeatedly taken her to

court over financial issues and Ms. Barouch stated that Mr. Barouch should be considered a suspect. Further, Ms. Barouch stated that she is employed as a substitute teacher and is temporarily employed by the United States Census Bureau. Ms. Barouch stated that she could not think of anyone else in her personal or professional life who could be a suspect or whom she had any type of conflict with.

7. After speaking with Ms. Barouch and observing the suspicious package, the Colleyville Police Department contacted the North East Fire Department Association (NEFDA) to assist with rendering safe the suspicious package. Upon arrival of the NEFDA at the scene, the suspicious device was disrupted using a water cannon and was rendered safe. At that time, Colleyville Police Department contacted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for assistance, and Explosives Enforcement Officer (EEO) David A. Bennett was called to the scene.

8. Upon arrival at the scene, A TF EEO Bennett was briefed and conducted a cursory examination of the evidence. Based upon this examination, EEO Bennett determined that the device consisted ofa container, specifically the two wooden salad bowls taped together with masking tape, which held the main explosives charge, specifically approximately three pounds of a blade/gray powder consistent with smokeless powder. Further, the container held the electrical circuit, specifically a loop switch made from bare. exposed wires, a six volt lantern battery and the initiator. specifically an automotive type light bulb with the glass removed and the filament exposed. Also, the device contained fragment in the form of what appeared to be 9mrn projectiles, consistent with those found in handgun ammunition.

9. Based upon the evidence and his explosives training and experience, EEO Bennett determined that the device was consistent with an Improvised Explosive Weapon.

10. While Colleyville Police Department Officers and Agents from A TF were present at the scene, Ms.

Barouch stated that, during their marriage, Mr. Barouch was very controlling over her and was physically abusive to both her and her son Ms. Barouch stated that ts£ is sixteen (16) years of age and was at Mr. Barouch's residence for a scheduled visit from April 30, 20lO-May 2,

2010 and that 2 was still in Mr. Barouch's custody. Further, Ms. Barouch explained that she

expected to be back to her house at approximately 6:00 pm on this date.

11. Ms. Barouch repeatedly stated that she knew of no one who would want to harm her except for Mr.

Barouch and stated that Mr. Barouch had previously left threatening type messages for Ms. Barouch over the course of their divorce proceedings which have lasted for approximately five (5) years. Ms. Barouch stated that Mr. Barouch has a collection of firearms, is an expert marksman and, during their marriage, Mr. Barouch would engage in the practice of reloading his own ammunition.

12. I know through my training and experience that, people involved in the reloading of ammunition would be familiar with the acquisition and use of smokeless powder and projectiles for use in their ammunition.

13. While Officers and Agents remained with Ms. Barouch, she spoke to her son ; who was with

Mr. Barouch, via telephone. During this conversation, Ms. Barouch heard Mr. Barouch yelling in

the background, telling to ask her why her house was on television.

14. On May 2, 2010, at approximately 5:20 prn, Mr. Barouch and his son" ••• were observed as they

arrived at Mr. Barouch' s residence, 5205 Selago Drive. Fort Worth, TX. At approximately 5 :40 pm, Colleyville Police Department Officers and A TF Agents made contact with Mr. Barouch and a &

18. At Mr. Barouch's residence, Agents and Officers spoke with Mr. Barouch and they observed his demeanor to be very confrontational toward officers and he appeared to be very nervous. Mr. Barouch initially stated that he did not want to talk to officers and began to walk back inside the residence. Mr. Barouch was visibly nervous and was sweating profusely. Officers continued to attempt to talk to Mr. Barouch and informed him about the "bomb" that was found at his wife's residence. Mr. Barouch attempted to act surprised but never inquired about his ex-wife's well being or ask about any further details. Mr. Barouch allowed A TF Agent B. Gordon and Colleyville Police Department Detective Kevin Walling to come inside the residence and agreed to speak: with them.

19. During this interview, Mr. Barouch continued to act very nervous and appeared stressed. Mr.

Barouch was asked about anyone who would want to hurt him or his ex-wife and he provided the names of several people who would want to hurt him but did know of anyone who would want to harm his ex-wife. Mr. Barouch stated that he no longer reloaded ammunition but admitted that he

still had the equipment used in the reloading process. A TF Agent B. Gordon left Mr. Barouch in the residence with the Colleyville Police Department Officer and stepped outside. Upon his return, the interview with Mr. Barouch continued.

20. In an attempt to get Mr. Barouch to admit his involvement with the Destructive Device/Improvised Explosives Weapon, Mr. Barouch was told that his DNA and fingerprints were present on the device found at his ex-wife's residence. Mr. Barouch did not appear to be surprised and stated something to the effect of"oh great", and then stated that he did not have anything to say about that. Further, Agents and Officers attempted to empathize with Mr. Barouch in order to build rapport and Agents stated that they understood that Mr. Barouch probably did not intend to kill his ex-wife with the device but rather just scare her, to which Mr. Barouch again replied that he did not want to talk about that.

21. Mr. Barouch was asked about his whereabouts on the night of May I, 2010 through the morning of May 2,2010. Mr. Barouch stated that he went to the no Frills Bar and Grill on Highway 377 in Keller, TX at approximately 12:00 am on May 2, 2010 and remained there until approximately 2:00 am, at which time he returned to his residence.

22. Agents asked Mr. Barouch for consent to search his residence and Mr. Barouch refused consent.

25. On May 4,2010, Special Agent M. Brown spoke Mr. Barouch via cellular telephone to request that they meet somewhere neutral to speak with one another. Mr. Barouch informed Special Agent Brown that his divorce attorney had advised him not to speak with law enforcement without the presence of an attorney.

26. On May 4, 2010, Colleyville Police Department Detective D. Martz closely examined the photographs of Improvised Explosive Weapon left at Ms. Barouch's residence on May 2.2010. Specifically. Detective Martz examined the photograph taken prior to the device being disrupted and rendered safe. In this photograph, Detective Martz could clearly see that the device was contained within two wooden salad bowls, with distinctive notches on the side, which were taped together. Detective Martz observed that the bottom of one of the bowls was engraved with "8. Smith".

27. Detective Martz believed that the marking could indicate the make or manufacture of the bowl and he conducted an internet search for the name and specific bowl. Detective Martz found that the identical bowl was sold exclusively by Bed, Bath and Beyond. Further, Detective Martz queried the

Bed, Bath & Beyond web site and found that the two bowls used as part of the Improvised Explosive Weapon are particularly described as B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Set, marked "Exclusively ours" on the web site. The set contains one bowl along with a two piece serving utensil set. The image of the bowl on the web site was identical to image of the bowl contained in the crime scene photographs of the Improvised Explosive Weapon.

28. Detective Martz contacted Keith LNU, the Bed. Bath & Beyond store manager at the Watagua, TX location, regarding the B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Set. According to Keith, this particular item is assigned SKU number 16351113. Keith also conducted a search of the Bed, Bath & Beyond computer system to track sales of this particular item over the last thirty day period.

29. According to Keith, the Bed, Bath & Beyond store located in Hurst, TX was the only store to have sold two of this particular item in one single transaction within the last thirty day period. Keith commented that it was very odd for someone to purchase two of these items at the same time.

30. On May 4, 2010, Detective Martz contacted John Ceasar at the Bed, Bath & Beyond store located at 853 North East Mall Boulevard, Hurst, TX. John Ceasar conducted a similar computer query for transactions involving the B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Set and located a single transaction for two (2) B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Sets and a 10 liter grey trash can at the Bed, Bath & Beyond store located at 853 North East Mall Boulevard, Hurst, TX on April 14,2010 at approximately 12:18 pm.

31. Bed, Bath & Beyond Hurst location store manager Cliff Rhodes pulled the security video footage which shows reflects the April 14, 2010 transaction as well as security video footage of the purchaser entering the store on that same date and provided the video footage to the Colleyville Police Department and A TF.

32. ATF Special Agent T. Riddle, Colleyville Police Detective H. Wreay, and Detective Martz watched the Bed. Bath & Beyond video of the transaction and observed a white male, dressed in a light yellow or cream colored shirt sleeve polo style shirt, dark pants, and a dark colored baseball style hat with a large distinctive symbol on the front, purchase the two B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Sets along with a trash can. The individual in the video paid cash for the items and then departed the store. All three investigators realized that the person in the video had physical characteristics similar to the known physical characteristics of Mr. Barouch such as height, weight, hair color, and race.

33. On May 4,2010, the Bed, Bath & Beyond cashier who completed the transaction on

April 14,2010 involving the sale ofthe two B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Sets and the trash can, was interviewed and viewed the videotape images of the transaction.., _ stated that she remembered the transaction because "the guy was kind of weird". She recalled that the purchaser was talking about his family and how he was buying two sets of bowls because he broke one and was either buying one for his wife for a party or one for his son's baseball game party.

34 .... was provided with a photographic image of Mr. Barouch and investigators asked her if the person in the photograph (Mr. Barouch) was the same individual who purchased the two B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Sets and the trash can on April 14,2010. __ - viewed the photograph and said the jaw-line and smile were very similar to the person who

purchased the bowl sets and the trash can. folded down the top portion of the photograph as if to block out the forehead and hair due to the fact that the subject who conducted the transaction was wearing a baseball cap.~as asked on a scale of 1 to 10, how sure she was the subject in the photograph was the same person who purchased the two B. Smith Acacia Wood Round Salad Bowl and Server Sets and the trash can on April 14, 2010. _responded that she would say a seven (7). reiterated that she was familiar with the transaction and the person on this date due to the fact that he made her feel very unsettled and "creeped her out" stated that she did not understand why he kept justifying to her the reason why he was purchasing the bowls during the transaction.

35. Independently, on May 4,2010, the video images from Bed, Bath & Beyond related to the purchase of the two bowls were shown to Special Agent B. Gordon who previously conducted an interview of Mr. Barouch on May 2, 2010. Based on his recollection of Mr. Barouch from the interview, Special Agent Gordon indicated that he was approximately 90% certain that the person seen in the video purchasing the two bowls is Mr. Barouch. Further, Special Agent Gordon stated that the jowls of the person seen in the video looked like Mr. Barouch' s and further commented that he believed that Mr. Barouch was wearing the identical shirt as in the video during the interview of Mr. Barouch at his residence on May 2, 2010.

36. Independently, also on May 4, 2010, the video images from Bed, Bath & Beyond related to the purchase of the two bowls were shown to Colleyville Police Department Detective Kevin Walling who personally knows Mr. Barouch through community sports teams and who conducted an interview of Mr. Barouch on May 2, 2010. Based on his personal relationship and recent interaction with Mr. Barouch, Detective Walling stated that he was 100% certain that the person seen in the video purchasing the two bowls is Mr. Barouch. Detective Walling further stated that he believed that the shirt worn by Mr. Barouch in the video is the same shirt that Mr. Barouch was wearing during the May 2, 2010 interview. Detective Walling further commented that the cheeks of the person in the video were just like Mr. Barouch's cheeks.

37. Independently, also on May 4, 2010, the video images from Bed, Bath & Beyond related to the purchase of the two bowls were shown to Colleyville Police Department Detective Cheryl Womak who personally knows Mr. Barouch through her official duties as a school resource officer within the Grapevine - Colleyville School District and her relationship with the Barouch family over the course of many years. Based on this personal knowledge of Mr. Barouch, Detective Womak stated that she was 100% certain that the person seen in the video purchasing the two bowls is Mr. Barouch.

38. Independently, also on May 4,2010, the video images from Bed, Bath & Beyond related to the purchase of the two bowls were shown to Ms. Barouch. Ms. Barouch stated that with 99% certainty. the person seen in the video purchasing the two bowls is Mr. Barouch. Further, Ms. Barouch commented that the person in the video had jowls which looked liked Mr. Barouch' s, Ms. Barouch provided Detectives with the following written affidavit regarding her identification of the person in the video as Mr. Barouch:

"I was shown two videos. The man in the videos appears to be my ex-husband, Dave Barouch. The build and mannerisms appear to be his. The type of dress is what I have known him to wear. The face shape (jowels) is the same as his. I'm 99% certain it is Dave Barouch. Since the picture is grainy I am not able to

clearly see his face.

He lifts weights and likes to wear his shirts tight in the chest area, as the man in the video,"

Therefore. I, the undersigned ask that a search warrant be issued according to the provisions of the State Law to search for and seize the said Evidence of Manufacture, Possession, or Use of an Destructive DevicelImprovised Explosive Weapon. in violation of26 USC 5861. believed possessed by DAVID BAROUCH, WIM, Texas Drivers License number 16108383, at 5205 Salago Drive, Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas, in the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, State of Texas,
